Thought I would share my DIY stock tikka upgrades this started out by taking my gun apart for a thorough cleaning and wanting to tune the gun to better fit my frame. I started by adjusting the scope and shortening the stock. After cutting the stock I tried to make a bracket out of rigid pvc to fit the original but pad but I did not like the look of this. When sitting behind the gun I didn't like the way my grip was so I decided to find a way to make a custom grip. I used thermoplastic to mold a foregrip and a pistol style grip. I then decided to add an arca swiss adaptor to the foregrip for tripod mounting. After painting I did not like the unfinished look so I then decided to do a carbon fiber skinning. This is where things started to spiral and the work entailed was more then expected but I am happy with the result. I then did some sponge camo to give it a refined look. Anyways here is the end result. Still needs some work. Thinking about some bottom metal and a pillar bed and well see how it shoots.Please feel free to give some feedback or experiences or any suggestions to add.
Easiest way I could think to upload was YouTube.
Couple notes on what was done:
Added a wider forgrip with arca swiss
Pistol grip
Carbon fiber skin
Lumley bolt and carbon knob
Limbsaver grind to fit
Atlas shroud
